Chapter 4: Whispers on the wind
Faye groaned as reality started slow coming back to her. Deyanira, the fight at the mall, two other guys with the Balcoin mark. Everything. "Where the hell am I?" she thought out loud looking around the room. She was feeling dizzy for some strange reason looking around the room, it wasn't until she noticed that there was a second floor, that she recognized the place. The club house.
Suddenly she shivered as a cold breeze brushed against her hot body, the adrenaline in her system raising at a quick pace. Melissa, she heard somebody, a man, whisper softly on her ear. She turned around hoping to come across one of the guys that knocked them out on the parking lot, but instead she came across nothing.
It wasn't the first time that something like this has happened before, plus is not like she's impressed anymore, ever since she became a witch she's come across demons, witch hunters, possessed people, dark witches, so maybe she's been haunted by a ghost or something. She chuckled at that thought, a ghost, as if that was even possible. Then again people aren't suppose to come back from the dead either but Nick did, so maybe a ghost isn't something as impossible as she thought.
Melissa, somebody repeated, but this time the voice didn't sound like a man's it sounded more caring, more feminine.
"Mel?" she said sounding a little disoriented, she knew where she was and who this Melissa was, but why couldn't she bring herself to move? Why wouldn't her own body listen to her?
Crash, she was brought out of her thoughts by the loud crashing sound of glass chattering followed by a couple of curses. Suddenly the voice cursing was overtaking by the undistinguished sound of the annoying voice of that bitch. Deyanira.
"You fucking bitch" somebody yelled and more crashing noises followed. Faye's breath hitched, what if that was her friend down there getting hit by chattering glasses?
Fight
"What? Who are you?" she asks turning around, only to find nothing. Letting out an exasperated sigh, she tried to move again and was surprised when her body actually moved.
Crash, "You bitch" the same voice as before yelled at who the brown-haired girl assume was Deyanira. 'I'm so going to kill that bitch if she even touched a single hair of Mel's head' she thought getting to her feet.
"Get the hell out-of-the-way, you fag" Deyanira yelled and Faye started walking to where the noise was coming from. She walked passed what was a living and down the hall, she stopped right in front of the door that leads to the basement, where all of Blackwell's dark stuff was, along with the Balcoin mark drawn on the ceiling.
"Shit" she cursed under her breath, what if they were planning on sacrificing Melissa?
"You two stop it" a male command, his tone full of dominance and power. 'If I wasn't in this situation I would be all over you' Faye couldn't help that thought to cross her mind at hearing the young man's voice, what she hoped was a young man.
Faye was about to open the door to the basement when the door behind her opened. The girl froze, not moving a muscle, what was she going to do?, she wondered.
The person standing behind her grabbed her by the arm and yanked her into the room, with its other hand covering Faye's mouth, preventing said girl from screaming. "It's me, Faye" the person said lowly. Warm arms wrapped themselves around her in a warm and comforting embrace, though she wasn't quite sure as for which of the two was the comfort.
"Mel?" she said turning around, not pulling away from the embraced. Her breath hitch as she took in the appearance of her best friend. The girl's clothes were full of dust and her shirt was broken on various random place, the jeans had holes in them along with several cuts and had blood stains here and there too. Melissa's face looked horrible, it was swollen in some places and had a couple of cuts, not too deep but deep enough as to last a couple of days until it heals.
"Shut up, Damian. You aren't my father" Deyanira yelled.
"Yeah 'cause John was such a great parent" the same person that was arguing with Deyanira replied, the sarcasm clear in his voice.
"Don't you dare, talk about father that way" a different male voice said, trying to sound convincing, but failing. The edge in his voice was as clear as daylight.
"I'll talk about that bastard however I want to" a boy yelled followed by the sound of glass breaking. Faye felt Melissa tensed, the girl was hurt, but how did that happen?
"Mel what's wrong?" she asks rubbing circle on the other girl's back trying to soothe her.
"W-we have to help him" Melissa says, trying to get back to her feet only to fall back down. Faye was there in a second, her arms wrapped around Melissa's body in case she would fall again.
Faye felt her anger rising to dangerous levels, why would those fuckers hurt Melissa and not her? Why were they even kidnapped? A loud crash snapped her out of her thoughts, the sound of a door opening followed.
Run, the same male voice as before said, a small breeze hitting her. The window suddenly flew open and the room was quickly enveloped with strong currents of wind.
"Let's go" the Chamberlain girl said standing up and helping Melissa back to her feet. She was about to jump out the window when she noticed that Melissa was walking towards the door. She groaned stepping away from the window and walking over towards her friend, she was pissed off but Melissa was in no condition to fight. She vowed that Melissa would get out of this one alive and she would make sure to keep her promise.
"What the hell are you doing?" she asks pulling the other teen away from the door, she would throw her out the window if she have to. Melissa struggled, she wanted to get away from this place, but she had to help that boy. The boy who helped her get away from Deyanira. Hunter, she remembers his name. He's one of them, but he helped her, he can't be evil if he saved her, right?
"I have to help him" she says pushing Faye away, some of her strength back. She was exhausted, running around all day and using so much of her magic was getting to her. She needed to rest, but right now she wanted to do all in her power to save Hunter.
"What are you talking about? Save who?" Faye ask, she needed to get Melissa out of there before they notice that she isn't knocked-out anymore, but the girl wasn't making it easier for her either. Melissa was about to explain when she decided that she's had enough. "You know what, right now I don't care, now get your ass out that window before I make you" she threatened point at the open window.
"I will not leave this place without him" Melissa replies through clenched teeth. Now she was mad, she could understand the fact that Faye was worried and mad too, but she wasn't leaving without Hunter.
Faye took a deep breath, she had forgotten how stubborn Melissa could be when she wanted to, she reminded her about herself sometimes too. "Mel, please let's get our of here, please" Faye begged she wasn't used to it, but desperate times call for desperate methods. Melissa shook her head, she wasn't going to have it, she was going to help Hunter or die trying.
"We have to help him" Melissa argued, she wanted to help him, but she couldn't push her body past its limit, as long as the adrenaline pumping through her veins was high she could get away from here, but that rush was enough to help her in a fight. She hated to admit it, but she was weak, useless actually and that thought alone made her angry.
Hunter had gone against his brothers trying to protect her. She knew that he was a Blackwell, but he was different, they had only gotten a few minutes to talk before the fight going on downstairs started and in those couple of minutes he earned her trust. She doesn't know how to explain it, but he reminds her of Diana.
Protect
Suddenly she was brought out of her thoughts by a warm breeze. It was strange since the weather was cold, they were close to winter, but that breeze. The window was wide open and so close to her, she would just have to jump through it and she was out of there, but Hunter, he needed her. She was there when they first started fighting, Hunter had defended her against Deyanira earlier and now she wants to return the favor.
The sound of quick footsteps snapped her back to reality. "Asshole" the girls heard Deyanira yell as the footsteps sounded closer and closer. Her breath hitched as the doorknob turned, she was afraid that her heart was going to burst from her chest at how fast it was beating.
"Get behind me" Faye said pulling her by the arm. She almost screamed at the contact, how could she forgotten that Faye was there with her? She wanted to argue about her been able to protect herself, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.
Faye was scared, she couldn't deny that, just to think that there are four others like Cassie and Diana, mostly Cassie, was enough to make her tremble. "On the count of three you jump out the window Mel" she said without even looking back, she couldn't. She couldn't bear to see the girl she loves like a sister crying. If she turns back to look at Mel's face she's certain that she'd have a break down and start crying too, but she couldn't do it, not at a time like this. She has to be strong, for both of them.
"Melissa, promise me that you'll jump through that wind and get as far away from here as possible. Promise me" she said a tear or two escaping her eyes. She was holding them back, she had to, if she started crying now she won't be able to let Melissa go.
Melissa was trembling, she was scared for all of them actually. 'What if they did something to him?' she thought. Faye's hands clenched tight, her nails digging into her skin. "Where the hell is he?" came Deyanira's voice from somewhere inside the house. Suddenly the door flew open and Faye was about to send whoever opened it flying when Melissa stopped her.
"Hunter?" Melissa gasps.
"Dammit, this is useless" Dawn Chamberlain cursed slamming the locator crystal against the table, making Jake jump.
It had been hours since Jake had went over to the Chamberlain residence and started researching along with Dawn's help for a way to locate the two missing teenage witches. He was going through the Chamberlain's Book of Shadows, while Dawn was trying every tracking spell she knew on the locator crystal trying to find a way to know about Faye and Melissa's whereabouts.
As if not finding the girls wasn't enough Cassie and Adam hadn't even given him a call or a text. He told her to meet him at his house, but the girl didn't arrived. Jake wasn't the only one irritated at the blonde girl's actions, she was the circle's leader for fuck's sake.
Suddenly an image of Diana came into his mind and he sighed. Why did you have to leave?, the blonde wondered. If Diana hadn't left Chance Harbor, they would surely be on their way right now to saving the girls, but no, Cassie and Adam had to be doing whatever the hell they were doing leaving Jake all alone to deal with the problems. Circle problems.
"Ugh, I've had it. I'm going to talk to Kate, she should know something that can help us" Dawn indicated dialing a number on her phone and leaving the room.
'Am I that untrustworthy?' Jake shook his head, trying to shake those thoughts away. He pout as the answer to his question probably was a 100% yes, but he didn't have time for that, he needed to save his friends. His family.
'Through time and space, I travel. Show me what I most desire'
The words seem to be carried by the wind, but the voice. That voice. Jake shook his head, he was just stressed. He wasn't hearing things, he assured himself. He was stressed, tired and hungry, he could blame it on those factors for what just happened. There was no way that he was hearing his mother's voice. He couldn't be.
A/N: I'm sorry guys for not updating sooner, honestly I didn't feel like writing but thanks to all the reviews I've gotten, I forced myself into writing it. Thank you to all of you for reviewing, It means a lot.
This chapter is kind of weird 'cause when I started writing the story I never pictured this chapter this way, but it seems that the story is writing itself. I'll try to update soon and don't forget to review. Thanks! :)
Also go check out my Twilight fic its called Slavery. It's the first time I write two stories at the same time, so I'll see how I work it out. Plus its the first time I try to write a Twilight fic.
I got an idea for the story but I need help to make it work. What I need is for any of you to simply PM me some information about an OC character that you'll like to see on this story. The thing is that I need a couple of new characters for the story, but I wanted to see if any of my readers would be interested in helping me. The OCs have to be witches, it doesn't matter if they are white or dark witches.
